Heavy-Duty Carry Strength. 100% Recyclable Paper Tape Handles.
Eco-friendly paper bags with comfortable flat paper tape handles for takeaway, bakery, and retail.
Custom Flat Handle Paper Bags (commonly referred to as flat-tape handle carrier bags) represent the European and North American industry standard for sustainable food takeaway and grocery fulfillment. Engineered with flat, multi-folded paper tape handles glued firmly to the interior upper hem, these bags offer superior hand comfort when carrying heavy, wide food containers, bakery boxes, or retail purchases.
Manufactured from 100% biodegradable, food-safe 100 GSM to 150 GSM natural unbleached kraft paper or white bleached kraft, these carrier bags are 100% recyclable and home compostable. Their structured square block bottom permits them to stand upright on packing tables, expediting order loading in busy kitchens and retail shops.
